Hello and Happy Sunday!


On the Home Front: 
  • Sunday - Relaxed. Mostly. Do those of us who run a household ever truly relax?
  • Monday - Why can I never remember what I do on Mondays?
  • Tuesday - Hubby has to work 10 hrs daily for the rest of the week. So I took Kyle to work.
  • Wednesday - Took Kyle to work. Trip had a morning appt so we did grocery pick up. Stayed up too late finishing Bones. Now I'm sad and extra tired.
  • Thursday - Took Kyle to work. New hot water heater was installed. Wow. I forgot how hot the water can get when it's working in tip top condition. Not to mention full flow instead of half.
  • Friday - Took Kyle to work. Did a bunch of blog work then we had Texas Roadhouse take out courtesy of Kyle.
  • Saturday - Boys took down the outside Christmas lights and now it's so dark outside. Depressing. I did the Saturday cleaning and also cleaned and tidied up under my kitchen sink which had gotten really ugh. I ordered some organizers to go under there but they didn't fit. Stupid pipes lol. Anyway, one of the ones I got for a different cupboard works, so not a lost cause. Hoping to do the rest of the kitchen cuboards this week, assuming we really do get a shitton of rain.
  • Today - Mostly relaxing, I think. I may try writing a review or I may read. I do need to clean up the strands of solar lights so Trip can put them up out front.
Mom's week: Had a good week. Compression socks seem to be helping. They're pretty blah though. Why can't someone make some cool funky compression socks? Just cuz we get old doesn't mean we get boring. Yeesh. Anyway, she also went shopping Saturday with bro and sis-in-law. She got a new pair of kicks that are peach colored New Balance and they look very Spring-like. Fancy pants!

Touching Nature: Rain, cloudy, sunny, rain, blah, blah, blah January weather. lol Supposed to rain all this coming week and maybe get snow Friday evening? We'll see. That's a long way away when it comes to forecasting. 

Book News: Wrote a few reviews and finished another book. Drafted some posts.

Don't Touch That Dial!: Finished Bones. Now I'm sad. I really liked that show. Started Cold Case. 

At the Flicks: Nope but Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania is coming soon.

Cyberspace Playground: Wordle, Zen Match, jigsaw puzzles

Randomness:  

Carol's Nuggets of Wisdom:  
That's it for me. AVR News Update signing off. May all your books enthrall you.

  1. I hate finishing a show that I've loved and having to decide what to watch next. At least you've already picked your next series! :)

    Hope you have a good week!

    1. Ikr? I had a love/hate (mostly love) relationship with Supernatural and didn't really care for the ending, but Bones I loved. We're running out of shows that we started and hadn't finished though. lol

  2. I really hear you about if you run a household you don't get much time to truly relax. If I am not doing appts / errands, then I'm cleaning or cooking. Luckily, I can combine some of those with audiobooks.

  3. I don't finish shows. I hate finishing shows. Bones, Supernatural, Buffy - I've never finished those, I always stop before the end.

  5. I'm currently rewatching Bones for the Hundredth time. :)
    Glad Mom is getting out and about, which reminds me I need to get new shoes. :)

    Have a great week, my friend! Happy Reading!

    1. I'll probably start it again soon. It's a show that I really like even with all the science speech.
